### sec.53 Management plans
The chief executive may prepare a draft management plan for designated fossicking land or a fossicking area if, in the chief executive’s opinion, the use of the designated fossicking land or fossicking area should be regulated because of the extent of use of, or the impact of activities on, the land.
In preparing the draft management plan, the chief executive must consult with landowners, any land manager for the land, the local government for the land and anyone else the chief executive considers may be affected by the plan.
In preparing a final management plan, the chief executive must consider submissions properly made to the chief executive.
If the chief executive approves a final management plan, the chief executive must ensure the approved plan is available for public inspection at the places the chief executive considers appropriate.
